Lunar Eclipse 2/20/2008. Very cool indeed... I used my Nikon 80-200mm., with my doubler attached. I don't get to use the doubler too often, so when I heard about the eclipse, I thought it would be the perfect time to do so.

While I was painting a watercolor of this scene at the Burren in Doolin, Ireland, The entire sky turned a magnificent shade of purple. I knew I only had a couple moments, so I grabbed my camera and went to town. I will never forget it, it was so breathtaking.

Macro is what really got me into serious photography. I love getting so close to an image that it is not recognizable yet viewers are still taken by its beauty. I consider it focusing on the simple aspects of an image and showing its beauty. Most people would not look at this portion of a rose and see it as I did here.

I really got into sports photography over the past 2 years, especially with Kitesurfing photography. It's fun standing out in the ocean with these crazy kiteboarders flying around you! Here is Matt Griffin in Cape Cod.

About Me

I have been a Photographer since I was seven when I accidently found my mothers camera. I took it to school the next day and took photos of all my friends during recess. And from that day on, I almost always had a camera on hand. I was hired as a freelance photographer at a local newspaper during my senior year of highschool. When I went to college I studied Media Art which also brought in the medium of film. I had a lot of fun with film, but my heart was always in still photography. After graduating college, I went to England, Ireland, and Scotland for the summer and just took photos. When I returned home, I was excited to start a career. I secured a position at the same newspaper company and was employed there for 3 years. My photography skills grew durring my employment, but eventually had to move onto bigger things..."My own company". Emanuelson Photography was born! January 2007 I went on my own. Starting your own business is tough, I won't lie! I love it though, and my heart is in it. This is my kiteboarding photography.
